Gold Phoenix Zan

This is a set of two Zan hairpins in the shape of phoenixes. They were cast as pieces and then welded together. The head of the hairpin is a hollow phoenix, with its torso, wings, and tail delicately formed by fine wires, while the head, neck, and pin were formed by the repoussé method. The gold phoenix stands on a hollow cloud, looking graceful and noble. These hairpins would be inserted in the bun parallel to each other.
